Our Reviews

  • positive review  I just want to say that we are so happy with our decision to rescue a puppy from Rhode Home Rescue. We adopted Axl a week ago and he has brought so much joy to our home. He is an amazing puppy. We couldn’t be happier. The application process was so easy and the volunteers are amazing. Thank you, Jamie, Melina & Axl

  • We went to the adoption event and filled out the application on the way there. We were approved for the dog we wanted, signed some paperwork and took him home that day! We have two young children and were trying to find a shelter that would adopt a small dog to us, and weren’t having much luck even though our kids are very dog savvy. RHR met our kids, let us hold the dog, did not pressure us one way or the other, and despite there being 20 or so dogs there and a bunch of families, they kept it organized, fluid and quick. We are thrilled with our new family member. You guys, these people VOLUNTEER to do this... to meet trucks of dogs at all hours of the night to take them home to foster. Most of the time multiple dogs to one foster, dogs that haven’t had it very easy and are scared and dirty and who most likely wouldn’t have lived through the shelter they were pulled from. This is grueling, heart wrenching, valuable work. Please adopt. Validate this work and give these poor things a warm bed and a full bowl of food.

  • Worst adoption process I’ve have ever tried to go through. I’ve been waiting weeks to hear something back, going to adoption events, just to not hear a thing back. Waste of time.

  • Volunteering at RHR really helped me make a difference. By giving these pups a good home, I gain experience for when I am going to be a Veterinary Assistant. The best part at each adoption event is knowing their personalities by studying the behaviors and making to friends. 🙂

  • positive review  5 star experience from start to finish! We love our Blaire and could not be happier with all our experiences at Rhode Home Rescue! From my first interaction with Regina to the time we walked away with our adorable puppy, every person we dealt with was friendly, knowledgeable and obviously extremely dedicated. We were looking at a few different pups and we were able to take our time and find the perfect doggo for our family. Thank you so much to everyone involved! <3 <3
